Multiscale Comparison of Nonparametric Trend Curves
非参数趋势曲线的多尺度比较
We develop new econometric methods for the comparison of nonparametric time trends. In many applications, practitioners are interested in examining the trending behaviour of multiple time series. Among other things, they would like to know which time series have different trends and in which time intervals the differences occur. We design a multiscale test to formally approach these questions. Specifically, we develop a test which allows to make rigorous confidence…
